You are saying your DNS server is getting these mails from other hosts like mercury1?
Assumed the DNS server is not the SMTP server, I suggest to stop the sendmail listener on the interfaces, in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
And restart sendmail.
This will protect your server from further mails, and from DoS attacks on the sendmail port.
The /var/mail/mqueue will grow on the other (wrongly configured) hosts like mercury1.

Hello,
I have a bunch of cron jobs in the crontab. For some reason mail from the cron jobs started going to /var/spool/mqueue instead of being sent.
Does anyone know why mail from cron jobs would go to the queue instead of being sent? (9 Replies)
